The Things I Love To Paint

Michael Reid Murrurundi ushers in the spring with the arrival of new paintings by Stacey McCall. The culmination of an extended artist residency in Paris, McCall’s newest paintings reach Murrurundi having have recently exhibited in Michael Reid Berlin.

Titled after the gorgeous, gauzy glow that washes through each picture and lights up her elegant, effortlessly arranged accoutrements and tableware, The Things I Love to Paint finds McCall honing her softly expressive painterly language rooted in tonal underpainting. Evoking the essence of her still-life objects with an economy of graceful gestures and pared-back textural markings that filter through clouds of earthy, peachy tones, McCall’s deceptively simple, deftly realised style feels perfectly attuned to the warm insouciance and easy eclecticism of the Upper Hunter region.
With her distinctive and richly evocative approach to still life, McCall allows the cumulative impact of timeworn objects and artfully undone florals and fruit to conjure a familiar yet faraway mood.
